Non xinput controller rumble
I'm having an issue with controller rumble. I know that xinput is the best thing ever when you develop for xbox and PC, but I'd rather use unity native stuff instead.
Is there a way to vibrate the controller without xinput or other plugins?
I suppose this is still not implemented in any way in unity? Have you heard anything? I am working on a couch fighting game, and we would really like to have it, but I don't really feel like adding additional plugins (already have fmod).....
There\s a couple different ways of doing controller rumble properly, but they are all basically platform specific.
If you're developing for Xbox One, use the unity plugins you get provided.
For PS4, I assume you also get some plugins or atleast a Dualshock API (I dont have any xp in that area)
For PC, you should somehow autodetect what kind of controller the user is using and use xinput for xbox controllers and perhaps a controller handler from the asset store.
I believe that this feature is being researched by unity.
